Desiree was likewise quite ready to put the water balloon activity behind her. While she hoped time would run out before her turn as the target came, that was not the case. Deciding her clothes would be easier to put right than her hair, she kept the dragon scale shield near her head. The good news was she succeeded in protecting her head - and her perfect hairstyle. The bad news? The same couldn’t be said for her clothes. Her ballet moves helped her dodge the brunt of the attack, but her bottom half still got splashed. Heaving a frustrated sigh, she performed a quick drying charm. Not fun, Professor!
Between her efforts to fix her appearance and the instructions for the next activity, dinner in Hogsmeade was the last thing on her mind… until Mercer mentioned it. Oh dear, what an awkward situation! The more she thought about it, the more dinner as a trio sounded like a bad idea. Yeah no, she wasn’t going to disrupt… whatever this dynamic between Mitsuki and Mercer was. She was a princess, not a villain! That didn’t mean she was going to forget about the wager, though. “I actually have loads of shopping to do in Hogsmeade,” she said, and it wasn’t far from the truth. “How about you two do dinner and bring me back a cookie instead? Then we’ll call it even.”
Desiree donned a pair of goggles, carefully re-arranging her hair and hat to accommodate the strap. Her bright blue eyes surveyed the tree up and down, searching for a low-hanging fruit or a weak spot. She cautiously approached the tree, her wand in her left hand and her shield in her right. Nice tree, nothing to see here! Just a friendly neighborhood student…
Spotting a fruit that looked promising, she aimed her wand at the tree and quietly cast, “Immobulus!” She held up her shield as she waited to see if the spell worked, Better safe than sorry!
